摘要:
A mechanism for determining the focus by an objective lens of an image on a focal plane includes a needle shaped or other narrow scanning mask transversely oscillated in the focal plane between the lens and a transversely extending photoelectric element exposed to the mask intercepted image. The output of the photosensitive element is coupled by way of a high pass filter or differentiating circuit and a rectifier to a meter, the maximum meter reading indicating maximum AC output and hence maximum focus. The output of the photosensitive element is also connected through a low-pass filter to a meter or exposed control mechanism.

A light measuring circuit for an exposure time control device uses a photodiode to measure the object brightness and a logarithmic compressing diode to provide negative feedback between the output terminal and one input terminal of a differential amplifying circuit. The output of the light measuring circuit is summed with signals representing film sensitivity and diaphragm aperture setting and the resulting exposure time control signal is compensated for changes in temperature. An antilogarithmic converting circuit generates a signal proportional to the logarithmic value of the compensated exposure time control signal. The antilogarithmic converting circuit operates at the same reference potential as the differential amplifying circuit and its output is integrated and then used to terminate exposure.
